Asked if it would not have been possible to merely cut off Dotcom's access to the internet instead of raiding his property in the manner that it was, Langille said that was an oversimplification.

"We would need to identify the different ISPs, provide those companies with sufficient details, and they would have to shut off everything that was required to be shut off," says Langille

Davison challenged this statement.

"I realise it's not just a throwing of the switch, but certainly it wouldn't be beyond the ability to those with the skills to do so?" asked Davison.

Langille went on to agree with this assertion.
